Robustness of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger and W states against Dzyaloshinshkii-Moriya interaction

Kapil K. Sharma, S. N. Pandey

Published Nov 10, 2016• 0 citations

Abstract

In this article the robustness of tripartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) and W states is investigated against Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (i.e. DM) interaction. We consider a closed system of three qubits and an environmental qubit. The environmental qubit interacts with any one of the three qubits through DM interaction. The tripartite system is initially prepared in GHZ and W states respectively. The composite four qubits system evolve with unitary dynamics. We detach the environmental qubit by tracing out from four qubits and profound impact of DM interaction is studied on the initial entanglement of the system. As a result we find that the bipartite partitions of W states suffer from entanglement sudden death (i.e. ESD), while tripartite entanglement does not. On the other hand bipartite partitions and tripartite entanglement in GHZ states does not feel any influence of DM interaction. So, we find that GHZ states have robust character than W states. In this work we consider generalised GHZ and W states and three $π$ is used as an entanglement measure. This study can be useful in quantum information processing where unwanted DM interaction takes place.

Tripartite entanglement witnesses and entanglement sudden death

Yaakov S. Weinstein

I explore entanglement dynamics in a three qubit system comparing the ability of entanglement witnesses to detect tripartite entanglement to the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death (ESD). Using a system subject to dephasing I invoke entanglement witnesses to detect tripartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ)-type and $W$-type entanglement and compare the evolution of their detection capabilities with the evolution of the negativity, bipartite concurrence, and tripartite negativity. Interestingly, I find a state in which there is no concurrence or tripartite negativity but there is entanglement. Finally, I utilize a three qubit quantum error correction code to address how ESD affects the abilities of quantum error correction.

Dynamics of three-qubit systems in a noisy environment

NASSER METWALLY, A. Almannaei

Some properties of three-qubit systems interacting with a noisy environment are discussed. The amount of the survival entanglement is quantified for the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) and W states. It is shown that the entanglement decay depends on the noise type (correlated or non-correlated), the number of interacting qubits with the environment, and the initial state that passes through this noisy environment. In general, the GHZ state is more fragile than the W state. The phenomenon of entanglement sudden death appears in the GHZ state only for non-correlated noise.

Control of entanglement sudden death induced by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Qiang Zheng, Sun Ping, Xiaoping Zhang +1 more

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of a system composed of two non-interacting qubits, A and B. A third qubit, C, only has the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) spin-orbit interaction with qubit B. We find that the DM interaction can induce the entanglement sudden death (ESD) of the system qubits A and B, and properly mixing the initial state of the system and adjusting the state of qubit C are two effective methods of controlling ESD.

Locality of three-qubit Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-symmetric states

Dian Zhu, Gang-Gang He, Fulin Zhang

The hierarchy of nonlocality and entanglement in multipartite systems is one of the fundamental problems in quantum physics. We study this topic in three-qubit systems considering the entanglement classification of stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC). The equivalence under SLOCC divides three-qubit states into separable, biseparable, $W$, and Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) classes. The $W$ and GHZ are two subclasses of genuine tripartite entanglement. We adopt the family of GHZ-symmetric states as a research subject, which share the symmetries of the GHZ state and have a complete characterization of SLOCC classes. In the biseparable region (with bipartite entanglement), there exist GHZ-symmetric states that are found to be fully local. In addition, there are bilocal states in both the $W$ and GHZ classes. That is, neither of the subclasses of genuine tripartite entanglement can ensure genuinely tripartite nonlocality.

DM interaction induced sudden death of entanglement in two parameter qubit-qutrit states

Kapil K. Sharma, S. N. Pandey

In this article, we present the entanglement dynamics in a qubit-qutrit system. Here, we consider a closed system as a pair of qubit-qutrit and an external qubit which interacts with the qutrit of the closed system via y-component of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. We find that the state of external qubit do not affect the entanglement in two parameter qubit-qutrit states, it is only DM interaction strength which is affecting the entanglement. Further, we investigate the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death and identify the affected and unaffected two parameter qubitqutrit states by DM interaction.

Entanglement dynamics for a six-qubit model in cavity QED

Zhong‐Xiao Man, Yun‐Jie Xia, Nguyen Ba An

We study entanglement dynamics for a six-qubit model in cavity QED, where three two-level atoms A , B and C are initially prepared in a Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ)-like state and locally coupled with the independent cavities a , b and c , respectively. We consider entanglement evolution via negativity for the tripartite subsystems of atoms and the corresponding cavities. By choosing two types of GHZ-like states as atomic initial states, we shall show that the entanglement of atoms may or may not exhibit entanglement sudden death (ESD) depending on the type of atomic initial state.
